St. Michael, Catholic church in Neustadt-Nord, Cologne, Germany.
St. Michael is a Catholic church built between 1902 and 1906 in the Neustadt-Nord district of Cologne, featuring Romanesque Revival architecture designed by architect Eduard Endler with a Latin cross floor plan and two prominent towers.
The church was constructed starting in 1901 to serve the growing Catholic community during Cologne's industrial expansion, with its foundation stone laid in 1906 and dedication held on Michaelmas of that same year.
St. Michael functions as an active house of worship for the Catholic community in Cologne and hosts religious services, community gatherings, and occasional concerts that strengthen social connections within the neighborhood.
The church is located at 1a Brüsseler Platz with postal code 50674 and has limited wheelchair accessibility, so visitors should contact Diakon Ulrich Merz for current visiting hours and event schedules.
The church interior features unusual reddish-yellow geometric patterns on its ceilings that were repainted in 1974 and preserves remnants of original colorful floor designs in its side chapels from the early 1900s construction period.

Cologne, the fourth largest city in Germany, has stood on the banks of the Rhine for over two thousand years. This collection presents the main monuments, museums, and sites that trace the city's history from Roman times to the present day. The Gothic cathedral dominates the city center with its two 157-meter-tall towers, while remnants of medieval fortifications, such as the Hahnen Gate, testify to the defensive past of the city. The museums in Cologne offer a journey through the centuries. The Roman-Germanic Museum displays Dionysus’ mosaic and archaeological remains of the Roman colonia. The Wallraf-Richartz Museum houses seven centuries of European painting, from the Middle Ages to Impressionism. The Museum Ludwig contains one of the largest collections of pop art outside the United States, including major works by Warhol and Lichtenstein. The Nazi Documentation Center, located in the former Gestapo headquarters, documents the period from 1933 to 1945. The Chocolate Museum traces the history of cacao from Central America, while the Farina House remembers that Cologne has given its name to a world-famous fragrance since the 18th century.
